Giant Dipper Backseat Pivothead POV Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk 

did everyone on this coaster take a vow of silence before riding, this is the quietest group of people riding a coaster I've ever seen

This coaster made me an enthusiast today. Giant Dipper is a huge part of my life ❤️

What a beauty. Happy you got a ride on this. Fun coaster.

Great filming! This really captures the rambunctious quality of the ride in the back seat, which I've ridden countless times.

This was my first legit coaster. I still love riding it!

In the dark tunnel some guy yelled “ *WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE* ”

The next time you go to Texas, you should go to Kemah Boardwalk in Kemah Texas. It is a small park with a bunch of flat rides. A drop tower, swinging ship ect. The main attraction is the roller coaster. It is an old gravity group woodie. (Before timverliners) It has a 91 foot drop and a top speed of 51 mph. It has a great view while going up the lift hill behind you. (Like Wildfire) When you go over the lift hill, it takes you in a circle before the drop. (Also like Wildfire. It has some airtime. Don't expect it to be like Kentucky Flyer or an RMC. It is still fun. I will warn you that with my experience, the ride ops stapled me. Also when I went (in the middle of the day), it was a station wait. It is kinda rough, and kinda jerky. It is NOT as smooth as some newer woodies, but not like some older ones. It is pretty far from any Six Flags parks though. It is a fun ride, and another credit. (Wow what a long comment)

Pretty decent ride time especially for the 20s

Went on it last year , did not expect the beginning , butterfly effect really hit. As someone who has a love/hate relationships with coaster . Giant Dipper is one I would go on a million times!

This is the coaster from "Us" movie?

Such a good woodie. Decent airtime as well

A piece of history and a bonafide classic.

Now that's a really fun woodie! I miss this boardwalk... Really nice place

The back is the most fun place to sit I sat in the front once and it was way less scary then the back lol

This has the best airtime on a classic coaster

Love this coaster! Really hoping to get back to Santa Cruz soon

This was my first thrill ride I went on glad to see it is beloved by so many people even now

This is a cool coaster ride!!!WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!😄❤👍

That pre-lift section looks really cool

A landmark coaster wish I could've been there hope you had fun

I just rode this a few weeks ago! I prefer it to its sister at Belmont Park, pretty solid ride, although my friend insisted on riding in the front, but he bought the tickets.

I'm going to the boardwalk right as my school gets out for summer. The last time I rode it (last summer) my hip hurt for a couple of days after. It was still fun tho...

What did you think of the coaster Taylor? It’s bangy, so expect that. Love the tunnel though!

I should make this in Planet Coaster

When i was 11 at the Boardwalk one summer night near closing I wanted to ride the GD one more time, so I ran up the ramps and all where there was one worker and I begged for the last ride. I was the only one there, and convinced the guy so I boarded in the middle, all alone.the single rider! Now I had been on this coaster many times before and so there was no surprises, like watching your favorite movie. And by myself! Now you have just seen the video so you know the ride. The safety bar went down " Have fun!" I heard and off the cars shot off and down into the pitch black mine shaft. Wheee... and shot out and began it's climb . At night it is very beautiful so at the top you look around,but you sit and keep your hands in. and I did but...the coaster plunged down the hill made the left turn down and up again and that's when it happened...the safety bar came up over me and I flew off the seat into the air feeling the coaster going past underneath leaving me. I got hold of the bar and forced myself back,standing mind you, back down .I knew the ride so I was able to "go with the flow" but every one of those turns threw me at the side of the car as I air born. Well , with the last hill behind me and the track flattened and turned left towards the station, I pulled it together, sat, LOCKED down the safety bar ALL the way and put on a big smile and the station. Even though It really was truly terrifying, It prepared me for the other near death amusement ride experiences that were to come! Seriously.

go on the back if you want to feel how it feels when a plane goes through the worst turblense.

When I went on this the first turn was BRUTAL. I also was is the middle and didn’t get to ride any other times. So it does need to be re-tracked in some parts. Other than that, it is a really good ride.

Hey Taylor, have you ever been on the Cyclone at Coney Island?

good old classic woody

What do you do on that indoor section??

i went on it AND IT WAS NOT what i expected expecailly being someone who is light weight i thought i was gonna fall out.😭 i was screaming ITS VERY SCARY

Ugh, I tried to go on this last August and it just closed as we walked up. Grr

Ophelia, call the police

Is it just me or is nobody screaming the entire ride? It feels like an unwritten coaster rule was broken

I live here

i just went on a roller coaster that looks exactly like that i think its in san diego, ca

When we're you here

This looks like San Diego

Hold on, you said that you’d never do POV videos.
